Clinical Study

Anti-TNF-Alpha-Adalimumab Therapy Had Time Lag of Improvement in Synovial Hypertrophy Compared to Rapid Response in Power Doppler Synovial Vascularity

Figure 1

Serial changes after adalimumab therapy at radio-lunate joint (a) baseline (0 month, SH grade 3, SV grade 3), (b) one month (SH grade 3, SV grade 1), and (c) three months after (SH grade 1, SV grade 0). Power Doppler synovitis decreased dramatically on the first month, while gray scale synovitis decreased from the third month.
